Random thing at work:

Ok, so my company has Websense on their entire computer network, for restricted Internet Access at people's desks and all that. However, this also extends to the library computers, since every computer in the building is hooked up to teh same T-whatever line for the Net. So, one of the filters is 'Games' which prevents people from playing those odd little msn.com free games, like Bejeweled and Collapse. Of course, this leaves me with little to do sometimes. But, I found a way into the MUSHes, so I'm okay.

Just find it odd, especially after I see what some of the other people who use these comps look at. Apparently, it's okay to see ads for 'Chicas Muy Calientes', coming next weekend on Univision, according to Univision.com, but I can't play Mah Jong.

Wierd, man. Just wierd.

Just wait until you get the Tasteless filter. That ones messes with my head. Who decides what's tasteless and what's not? And why would you restrict someone from something tasteless? It just sounds WRONG. There is a way around web sense but if you leave it on it's detectable. Or so I hear.
